    • What a coincidence. I've just been hearing about this band on the news. I guess they are now article-worthy with all this euthansia business going on (Google news search for "Hell On Earth" euthanasia). I'll try to rewrite the article over the seven day grace period unless someone beats me to it. (Please do!) Pete 00:16, 6 Oct 2003 (UTC)
      • I've endeavoured to expand it just a little, with some external links (such as they are) and the titles of two albums gleaned from amazon.com. Isn't Toilet Licking Maggot a Cole Porter tune? Or am I thinking of Noël Coward? -- Smerdis of Tlön 18:48, 7 Oct 2003 (UTC)
    • Wonderful example of American culture at its best. If this is a relevant encyclopaedia entry I'm Father Christmas. Will anyone know this band in a year or two, it just loks like promotion advertising to me. DeleteNorwikian 20:04, 7 Oct 2003 (UTC)
      • Well, apparently their promotion advertising worked. And they got media attention. Thus the article is relevent. But even if there wasn't a lot of media attention: why should the article be removed? A band that released several CD's has people who are interested in their music (or their performances), which makes it worth to include information about the band on the 'pedia, in my humble opinion.

    • Well, they'll famous now, so deleting seems like a bad idea. -- Jake 08:53, 9 Oct 2003 (UTC)
    • Real band. Gets Google hits. Keep. Quinoaeater 06:02, 12 Oct 2003 (UTC)

"Tracks from their 1999 third album"[edit]

This article started out as a track listing for an album, with "no context", as Eloquence said. But here's a useful tip: the context of an article can be reconstructed by checking "What links here", and by checking the other edits by the same contributor around the time the article was created. (At the time, I mean; it's too late now that most of their articles have been deleted.) This would have shown that the album Hell On Earth which the page was about was an album allegedly made by the band Alcott Louisa (a band whose existence has, as far as I am aware, never been confirmed). See e.g. the soon-to-be-deleted article on Melisa Sloan. So it's not an album by the band Hell on Earth at all! If no context is given in an article, one should try to establish the context, and not just guess one. -- Oliver P. 20:27, 16 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Did the fan actually commit suicide?[edit]

I haven't any sources that say if the fan actually committed suicide. Geeky Randy (talk) 06:02, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
